Great experience, the staff was the best, I made a lot of friends and we enjoy a lot. My work was housekeeping, it wasn't too hard and the people working there was very kind. The Island is very beautiful and there are a lot of trips to do, but if you want to see Skye you have to plan it very well. Also, there are a lot of fun activities in which you can participate.

The best experience of my life, a very cozy place, the work was not hard and they informed you clearly of what your obligations were, the volunteers slept in tent but they gave you a duvet and sleeping bag so you would not go cold, looked after well Of the volunteers, as for the food you will not be hungry, and the staff who works at the hostel very friendly and I felt at home, wishing to come back again and see my Scottish family, their could have stayed longer , Would definitely repeat!

- I was sleeping in the girls dormitory (pros: personal bathroom, cons: lack of privacy). - Autumn no activities = no kayaking, no jumping cliff. We have access to bikes that are in poor condition (it takes 45 minutes to 1 hour and a half of cycling to get to the most beautiful hikes) - No meal at lunchtime on Sunday, but you still have to work. Lunch = pasta that tastes sweet which is very strange, tuna, chickpea and nachos. Breakfast= bread, peanut butter and nutella (nothing else) -Work = dishwasher, handyman or housekeeping (nothing else) (volunteer works harder than the staff)

The work was very easy and the team was incredible! Everyone helped me and showed me around. The hours and the work are more than fair however it was a bit confusing in the beginning because the place is big and there was a lot of staff walking around. Other than that the island is lovely and Freyah was very helpful everytime I needed something from her. Look out for the summer time, we stay in tents and it is a cold weather in Scotland nevertheless if that is ok for you I know you are going to have a great experience! I deffenitely recommend it

Nice place, stunning landscapes, great whiskies. Just wish we had three actual meals a day instead of the 5pm lunch/dinner and having to manage the rest with toast bread, peanut buuter and nachos... I would recommend to stay three weeks, which is enough to visit the isle of Skye and the hostel (the things worth visiting) more than that, you get too used to the place and the work (which, by the way, is not very interesting (cleaning bathrooms) but not tiring/difficult either) and just end up spending your free time either walking the same paths or just drink 'till the next day...

In general the experience was really great. The work I had to do, even though it was not the one that they said I would do, was ok and not very demanding. I was in housekeeping for the 3 weeks I was there and always cleaning bathrooms, but i'm not complaining, it was okey. The staff was more than great, mostly everyone was very nice with me, and helpfull. When talking about the food, it was great. Dinner was really good. I had an allergie and the chefs always cooked something different for me when they used that ingredient. I would recommend it!

I was travelling with my boyfriend and we got to share a tent and work together. The first days we even got to be in a pot! Although we were expecting to do something more diverse we ended up everyday on Housekeepig, which in our case ment 5h a day of cleaning bathrooms. Despite this, we got to do it together and play music, so it was kind of fun. Also, Ann, the woman in charge of Housekeeping was really nice and everyone there was so helpful. We almost never saw Freya, but the ambiet was great and the food pretty good too. Exploring skye was hard from here without a car.
